Company CEO Miles Jacobson said that the series could be withdrawn from the Google operating system in the future due to concerns that the piracy issue will make it unprofitable.

"We set a sales target at the beginning of the project that if we hit we would do another version," Jacobson told the official Red Bull website.

"Thankfully we have hit that, so we will be doing Football Manager 13 on Android, but it's quite sad when a business actually has to take piracy into account... we will be making the call year to year."
